General safety guidelines
Always observe the following precautions to reduce the risk of injury and property damage.
Service
Do not attempt to service a product yourself unless instructed to do so by the Customer Support Center.
Use only a service provider who is approved to repair your particular product.
Note: Some parts can be upgraded or replaced by the customer. These parts are referred to as Customer
Replaceable Units, or CRUs. Lenovo expressly identifies CRUs as such, and provides
documentation with instructions when it is appropriate for customers to replace those parts. You
must closely follow all instructions when performing such replacements. Always make sure that
the power is turned off and that the product is unplugged from any power source before you
attempt the replacement. If you have any questions or concerns, contact the Customer Support
Center.
Power cords and power adapters
Use only the power cords and power adapters supplied by the product manufacturer.
Never wrap a power cord around the power adapter or other object. Doing so can stress the cord in ways
that can cause the cord to fray, crack or crimp. This can present a safety hazard.
Always route power cords so that they will not be walked on, tripped over, or pinched by objects.
Protect the cord and power adapters from liquids. For instance, do not leave your cord or power adapter
near sinks, tubs, toilets, or on floors that are cleaned with liquid cleansers. Liquids can cause a short
circuit, particularly if the cord or power adapter has been stressed by misuse. Liquids can also cause
gradual corrosion of the power cord terminals and/or the connector terminals on the adapter which can
eventually result in overheating.
Always connect power cords and signal cables in the correct order and ensure that all power cord
connectors are securely and completely plugged into receptacles.
Do not use any power adapter that shows corrosion at the ac input pins and/or shows signs of
overheating (such as deformed plastic) at the ac input or anywhere on the power adapter.
Do not use any power cords where the electrical contacts on either end show signs of corrosion or
overheating or where the power cord appears to have been damaged in any way.
Extension cords and related devices
Ensure that extension cords, surge protectors, uninterruptible power supplies, and power strips that you
use are rated to handle the electrical requirements of the product. Never overload these devices. If power
strips are used, the load should not exceed the power strip input rating. Consult an electrician for more
information if you have questions about power loads, power requirements, and input ratings.
Plugs and outlets
If a receptacle (power outlet) that you intend to use with your computer equipment appears to be
damaged or corroded, do not use the outlet until it is replaced by a qualified electrician.
© Lenovo 2006. Portions © IBM Corp. 2004.
vii
Do not bend or modify the plug. If the plug is damaged, contact the manufacturer to obtain a
replacement.
Some products are equipped with a three-pronged plug. This plug fits only into a grounded electrical
outlet. This is a safety feature. Do not defeat this safety feature by trying to insert it into a non-grounded
outlet. If you cannot insert the plug into the outlet, contact an electrician for an approved outlet adapter
or to replace the outlet with one that enables this safety feature. Never overload an electrical outlet. The
overall system load should not exceed 80 percent of the branch circuit rating. Consult an electrician for
more information if you have questions about power loads and branch circuit ratings.
Be sure that the power outlet you are using is properly wired, easily accessible, and located close to the
equipment. Do not fully extend power cords in a way that will stress the cords.
Connect and disconnect the equipment from the electrical outlet carefully
Batteries
All personal computers manufactured by Lenovo contain a non-rechargeable coin cell battery to provide
power to the system clock. In addition many mobile products such as notebook PCs utilize a rechargeable
battery pack to provide system power when in portable mode. Batteries supplied by Lenovo for use with
your product have been tested for compatibility and should only be replaced with Lenovo approved
parts.
Never attempt to open or service any battery. Do not crush, puncture, or incinerate batteries or short
circuit the metal contacts. Do not expose the battery to water or other liquids. Only recharge the battery
pack strictly according to instructions included in the product documentation.
Battery abuse or mishandling can cause the battery to overheat, which can cause gasses or flame to
“vent” from the battery pack or coin cell. If your battery is damaged, or if you notice any discharge from
your battery or the buildup of foreign materials on the battery leads, stop using the battery and obtain a
replacement from the battery manufacturer.
Batteries can degrade when they are left unused for long periods of time. For some rechargeable batteries
(particularly Lithium Ion batteries), leaving a battery unused in a discharged state could increase the risk
of a battery short circuit, which could shorten the life of the battery and can also pose a safety hazard. Do
not let rechargeable Lithium-Ion batteries completely discharge or store these batteries in a discharged
state.
Heat and product ventilation
Computers generate heat when turned on and when batteries are charging. Notebook PCs can generate a
significant amount of heat due to their compact size. Always follow these basic precautions:
v Do not leave the base of your computer in contact with your lap or any part of your body for an
extended period when the computer is functioning or when the battery is charging. Your computer
produces some heat during normal operation. Extended contact with the body could cause discomfort
or, potentially, a skin burn.
v Do not operate your computer or charge the battery near flammable materials or in explosive
environments.
v Ventilation slots, fans and/or heat sinks are provided with the product for safety, comfort, and reliable
operation. These features might inadvertently become blocked by placing the product on a bed, sofa,
carpet, or other flexible surface. Never block, cover or disable these features.

CD and DVD drive safety
CD and DVD drives spin discs at a high speed. If a CD or DVD is cracked or otherwise physically
damaged, it is possible for the disc to break apart or even shatter when the CD drive is in use. To protect
against possible injury due to this situation, and to reduce the risk of damage to your machine, do the
following:
v Always store CD/DVD discs in their original packaging
v Always store CD/DVD discs out of direct sunlight and away from direct heat sources
v Remove CD/DVD discs from the computer when not in use
v Do not bend or flex CD/DVD discs, or force them into the computer or their packaging
v Check CD/DVD discs for cracks before each use. Do not use cracked or damaged discs

Positioning the projector
To determine where to position the projector, consider the size and shape of your screen, the location of
your power outlets, and the distance between the projector and the rest of your equipment. Following are
some general guidelines:
v Position the projector on a flat surface at a right angle to the screen. The projector must be at least 1.5
m (4.9 ft) from the projection screen.
v Position the projector within 2.7 m (9 ft.) of your power source and within 1.8 m (6 ft.) of your video
device (unless you purchase extension cables). To ensure adequate cable access, do not place the
projector within .15 m (6 in.) of a wall or other object.
v Position the projector the desired distance from the screen. The distance from the lens of the projector
to the screen, the zoom setting, and the video format determine the size of the projected image.

Appendix E. Lenovo Statement of Limited Warranty
LSOLW-00 05/2005
Part 1 - General Terms
This Statement of Limited Warranty includes Part 1 - General Terms, Part 2 - Country-unique Terms, and Part 3 Warranty Information. The terms of Part 2 replace or modify those of Part 1. The warranties provided by Lenovo
Group Limited or one of its subsidiaries (called ″Lenovo″) in this Statement of Limited Warranty apply only to
Machines you purchase for your use, and not for resale. The term “Machine” means a Lenovo machine, its options,
features, conversions, upgrades or peripheral products, or any combination of them. The term “Machine” does not
include any software programs, whether pre-loaded with the Machine, installed subsequently or otherwise. Nothing
in this Statement of Limited Warranty affects any statutory rights of consumers that cannot be waived
or limited by contract.
What this Warranty Covers
Lenovo warrants that each Machine 1) is free from defects in materials and workmanship and 2)
conforms to Lenovo’s Official Published Specifications (“Specifications”) which are available on request.
The warranty period for the Machine starts on the original date of installation and is specified in Part 3 Warranty Information. The date on your invoice or sales receipt is the date of installation unless Lenovo
or your reseller informs you otherwise. Unless Lenovo specifies otherwise, these warranties apply only in
the country or region in which you purchased the Machine.
THESE WARRANTIES ARE YOUR EXCLUSIVE WARRANTIES AND REPLACE ALL OTHER
WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO,
THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A
PARTICULAR PURPOSE. SOME STATES OR JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION
OF EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES, SO THE ABOVE EXCLUSION MAY NOT APPLY TO
YOU. IN THAT EVENT, SUCH WARRANTIES ARE LIMITED IN DURATION TO THE WARRANTY
PERIOD. NO WARRANTIES APPLY AFTER THAT PERIOD. SOME STATES OR JURISDICTIONS
DO NOT ALLOW LIMITATIONS ON HOW LONG AN IMPLIED WARRANTY LASTS, SO THE
ABOVE LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
What this Warranty Does not Cover
This warranty does not cover the following:
v any software programs, whether pre-loaded or shipped with the Machine, or installed subsequently;
v failure resulting from misuse, accident, modification, unsuitable physical or operating environment, or
improper maintenance by you;
v failure caused by a product for which Lenovo is not responsible; and
v any non-Lenovo products, including those that Lenovo may procure and provide with or integrate into
a Lenovo Machine at your request.
The warranty is voided by removal or alteration of identification labels on the Machine or its parts.
Lenovo does not warrant uninterrupted or error-free operation of a Machine.
Any technical or other support provided for a Machine under warranty, such as assistance with "how-to"
questions and those regarding Machine set-up and installation, is provided WITHOUT WARRANTIES
OF ANY KIND.
How to Obtain Warranty Service
Warranty service may be provided by Lenovo, IBM, your reseller if authorized to perform warranty
service, or an authorized warranty service provider. Each of them is referred to as a “Service Provider.”
© Lenovo 2006. Portions © IBM Corp. 2004.
E-1
If the Machine does not function as warranted during the warranty period, contact a Service Provider. If
you do not register the Machine with Lenovo, you may be required to present proof of purchase as
evidence of your entitlement to warranty service.
What Lenovo Will Do to Correct Problems
When you contact a Service Provider for service, you must follow the problem determination and
resolution procedures that we specify. An initial diagnosis of your problem can be made either by a
technician over the telephone or electronically by access to a support website.
The type of warranty service applicable to your Machine is specified in Part 3 - Warranty Information.
You are responsible for downloading and installing designated software updates from a support web site
or from other electronic media, and following the instructions that your Service Provider provides.
Software updates may include basic input/output system code (called “BIOS”), utility programs, device
drivers, and other software updates.
If your problem can be resolved with a Customer Replaceable Unit (“CRU”) (e.g., keyboard, mouse,
speaker, memory, hard disk drive), your Service Provider will ship the CRU to you for you to install.
If the Machine does not function as warranted during the warranty period and your problem cannot be
resolved over the telephone or electronically, through your application of software updates, or with a
CRU, your Service Provider, will either, at its discretion, 1) repair it to make it function as warranted, or
2) replace it with one that is at least functionally equivalent. If your Service Provider is unable to do
either, you may return the Machine to your place of purchase and your money will be refunded.
As part of the warranty service, your Service Provider may also install selected engineering changes that
apply to the Machine.
Exchange of a Machine or Part
When the warranty service involves the exchange of a Machine or part, the item your Service Provider
replaces becomes Lenovo’s property and the replacement becomes yours. You represent that all removed
items are genuine and unaltered. The replacement may not be new, but will be in good working order
and at least functionally equivalent to the item replaced. The replacement assumes the warranty service
status of the replaced item.
Your Additional Responsibilities
Before your Service Provider exchanges a Machine or part, you agree to remove all features, parts,
options, alterations, and attachments not under warranty service.
You also agree to:
1. ensure that the Machine is free of any legal obligations or restrictions that prevent its exchange;
2. obtain authorization from the owner to have your Service Provider service a Machine that you do not
own; and
3. where applicable, before service is provided:
a. follow the service request procedures that your Service Provider provides;
b. backup or secure all programs, data, and funds contained in the Machine; and
c. provide your Service Provider with sufficient, free, and safe access to your facilities to permit
Lenovo to fulfill its obligations.
4. (a) ensure all information about identified or identifiable individuals (Personal Data) is deleted from
the Machine (to the extent technically possible), (b) allow your Service Provider or a supplier to
process on your behalf any remaining Personal Data as your Service Provider considers necessary to
fulfill its obligations under this Statement of Limited Warranty (which may include shipping the
Machine for such processing to other service locations around the world), and (c) ensure that such
processing complies with any laws applicable to such Personal Data.

Lenovo C500 Projector User’s Guide
Limitation of Liability
Lenovo is responsible for loss of, or damage to, your Machine only while it is 1) in your Service
Provider’s possession or 2) in transit in those cases where Lenovo is responsible for the transportation
charges.
Neither Lenovo nor your Service Provider are responsible for any of your confidential, proprietary or
personal information contained in a Machine which you return for any reason. You should remove all
such information from the Machine prior to its return.
Circumstances may arise where, because of a default on Lenovo’s part or other liability, you are entitled
to recover damages from Lenovo. In each such instance, regardless of the basis on which you are entitled
to claim damages from Lenovo (including fundamental breach, negligence, misrepresentation, or other
contract or tort claim), except for any liability that cannot be waived or limited by applicable laws,
Lenovo is liable for no more than
1. damages for bodily injury (including death) and damage to real property and tangible personal
property for which Lenovo is legally liable; and
2. the amount of any other actual direct damages, up to the charges for the Machine that is subject of
the claim.
This limit also applies to Lenovo’s suppliers, resellers and your Service Provider. It is the maximum for
which Lenovo, its suppliers, resellers, and your Service Provider are collectively responsible.
UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES IS LENOVO, ITS SUPPLIERS, RESELLERS OR SERVICE
PROVIDERS LIABLE FOR ANY OF THE FOLLOWING EVEN IF INFORMED OF THEIR
POSSIBILITY: 1) THIRD PARTY CLAIMS AGAINST YOU FOR DAMAGES (OTHER THAN THOSE
UNDER THE FIRST ITEM LISTED ABOVE); 2) LOSS OF, OR DAMAGE TO, DATA; 3) SPECIAL,
INCIDENTAL, OR INDIRECT DAMAGES OR FOR ANY ECONOMIC CONSEQUENTIAL
DAMAGES; OR 4) LOST PROFITS, BUSINESS REVENUE, GOODWILL OR ANTICIPATED
SAVINGS. SOME STATES OR JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR
LIMITATION OF INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATION
OR EXCLUSION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
Governing Law
Both you and Lenovo consent to the application of the laws of the country in which you acquired the
Machine to govern, interpret, and enforce all of your and Lenovo’s rights, duties, and obligations arising
from, or relating in any manner to, the subject matter of this Statement of Limited Warranty, without
regard to conflict of law principles.
THESE WARRANTIES GIVE YOU SPECIFIC LEGAL RIGHTS AND YOU MAY ALSO HAVE OTHER
